Alone (ver 2) - Bee Gees
Alone
I love this song and always wanted to play it for my girlfriend. I found the lyrics and chords and put it together. Enjoy Pretty easy to play not so easy to sing. Bee Gees, Alone Intro: D Gmaj9 D D I was a midnight rider on a cloud of smoke D I could make a woman hang on every single stroke Gmaj9 I was an iron man, I had a master plan D But I was alone D I could hear you breathing, With a sigh of the wind D I remember how your body started trembling Gmaj9 Oh, what a night it's been, And for the state I'm in D I'm still alone BRIDGE 1 Bm7 Em7 And all the wonders made for the Earth A Em7 And all the hearts in all creation D Somehow I always end up alone (Always end up alone) Gmaj9 Always end up alone CHORUS D Bm7 So I play, (Sha? la) I?ll wait (I?ll wait) Em7 'Cause you know that love takes time (Livin love between the lines) D Bm7 We came, (Sha? la) so far (so far) Em7 Just the beat of a lonely heart F#m7 G And it's mine D D Gmaj9 D And I don't want to be alone VERSE D Well, since I got no message on your answer phone D Since you're busy every minute. I just stay at home Gmaj9 I make believe you care, I feel you everywhere D But I'm still alone D I'm on a wheel of fortune with a twist of fate D 'Cause I know it isn't heaven, is it love or hate Gmaj9 Am I the subject of the pain, Am I the stranger in the rain D I am alone BRIDGE 2 Bm7 Em7 And if the glory there to behold A Bm7 Maybe it's my imagination Em7 Another story there to be told? oow CHORUS D Bm7 So I play, (Sha? la) I'll wait (At times) Em7 And I pray it's not too late??? (Tears that you cry) D Bm7 We came (Sha? la) so far (so far) Em7 Just the beat of a lonely heart F#m7 G And it's mine (pause) D D Gmaj9 D And I don't want to be alone BRIDGE 3 Bm7 Em7 And all the wonders made for the Earth A Em7 And all the hearts in all creation Em7 Another story there to be told? oow CHORUS D Bm7 So I play, (Sha? la) I?ll wait (I?ll wait) Em7 And I pray it's not too late (Livin love between the lines) D Bm7 We came (Sha? la) so far (so far) Em7 Just the beat of a lonely heart F#m7 G And it's mine D And I don't want to be alone CODA D Gone, but not out of sight D I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home D Gonna Face the heat of the night D The one that you love's got a heart that's made of stone D Shine and search for the light D And sooner or later you'll be cruising on your o-cean D And clean out of sight D I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home

About the artist behind Alone:
The multiple Grammy Award-winning group was successful for most of its forty years of recording music, but it had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a harmonic "soft rock" act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and as the foremost stars of the disco music era in the late 1970s.
No matter the style, the Bee Gees sang tight three-part harmonies that were instantly recognizable; as brothers, their voices blended perfectly, in the same way that The Everly Brothers' did. Barry sang lead on many songs, and an R&B falsetto introduced in the disco years; Robin provided the clear vibrato lead that was a hallmark of their pre-disco music; Maurice sang high and low harmonies throughout their career. The three brothers co-wrote most of their hits, and they said that they felt like they became 'one person' when they were writing. The group's name was retired after Maurice died in January 2003.
The Bee Gees were inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997; fittingly, the presenter of the award to "Britain's first family of harmony"[1] was Brian Wilson, leader of the Beach Boys, America's first family of rock harmony.
It has been estimated that the Bee Gees' record sales total more than 220 million, easily making them one of the best-selling music artists of all-time. The above figure in record sales does not include record sales for artists for whom they have written and with whom they have collaborated. Their 1997 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame citation says "Only Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and Paul McCartney have outsold the Bee Gees".[2]
